Happy April fools day :)
The XVI saviour was designed to supply troops tea via the air, they were dropped by bombers and remotely guided to the nearest tea-deprived soldier, the aircraft would drop the tea in a kettle via parachute the kettle warmed the tea on the way down and the soldier could then continue fighting after being refuelled by yourkshire strong tea.
It was put into service with the RAF/British army in 1944 but air crews did not actualy know that instead of tea they were dropping beer to the troops, they did not know this because only the British army tea regiment was allowed to fill them up,
So instead of warm tea the troops got an even better morale boost with warm pints of beer...
